Test accuracy
Calculate the test’s accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, false positive rate, false negative rate, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and prevalence).

Disease present Disease absent Total
Test positive a b a+b
Test negative c d c+d
Total a+c b+d a+b+c+d
- Sensitivity(Sensitivity) = a/(a+c)
- Specificity(Specificity) = d/(b+d)
- False negative rate(False negative rate:FNR) = c/(a+c)
- False positive rate(False positive rate :FPR) = b/(b+d)
- Positive predictive value(Positive predictive value:PPV) = a/(a+b)
- Negative predictive value(Negative predictive value:NPV) = d/(c+d)
- Prevalence(Prevalence) = (a+c)/(a+b+c+d)
Each indicator is calculated by rounding at the fourth decimal place (to three decimal places).
